Ginisang Delatang Salmon

Ginisang Delatang Salmon. Being an OFW myself ginisang sardinas is a regular fare for us.  Sardinas is nutritious, cheap and easy to prepare. Most overseas Pinoy would likely not miss picking a week’s supply of canned fish on their weekly visit to their Asian Store. If you are located on an area where there are no Asian Store it is always worth a try to check out the Asian section of your favorite supermarket. That is of course if are really craving for Pinoy canned fish. Otherwise check out the canned food section for good canned fish. On my last visit to Woolworths Supermarket I picked up a couple of Australian canned salmon in brine. I have been very busy with work lately. I intend to cook these canned salmon Pinoy style, Ginisang Delatang Salmon.

Cooking is quick and easy, it only require basic ingredients. Canned fish are literally already cooked and ready to eat. All we do is to lightly cook the canned fish to incorporate some ingredient to improve the flavors. Otherwise caned fish or sardinas can be eaten straight from the can.
